For raising bread biscuit other food, only the very
best and purest baking powder should be employed The
of the ordinary of tartar, of baking pow
der containing me alum phosphates carries deleerous
ingredients into the food to the prejudice of the life and

IT rs A MYSTERY
How the Bcttis Boys Happened
to be Asleep Oh the Track.

There is some mystery connected with
the railroad accident in which the Belts
boys were injured. Their uncle lived ut
Scyene, and the journey from Dallas out
there was not a very long one. Why should
they have broken down and gone TO sleep
on the railroadg Not only so-thc train
must have crossed White Rock creek some
time after sun up, when the boys naturally
would have been awake why did they stop
around that curyey Then, how is IL both
were asleep at the same time? How could
they sleep so soundly on the rails of the
track where they were first discoveredy II
they were not drinking, and all the facts
show they we're not, then the mystery
deepens and the accident has not been ac-
counted for. 1t is unlikely that both
would have been so soundly asleep at the
same time, after broad daylight, i'll the posi-
ton they occupied, etc. 1t is to be hoped
that Geo. Belts may recover and in case
he does his account of the accident will not
be apt to confirm The theory generally ac-
cepted. Mark that. Thoughtful people be-
lievc they were louly dealt with and left
on the track near that curve, so that the
train would mangle their bodies and hide
the work of their murderer.

AN ODD WEDDING INCIDENT.
Tho Peculiar Mistake of a Mioister Who
Had Two Couples to Unite.

The Peculiar Mistake of a ETioister Who
Had Two Couples to Unite.
An odd incident happened recently at
the West Arch Street Presbyterian
chvrch, Philadelphia. There was to be
q wedding there at 1880 o'clock of o
young lady with an extensive social con
nection in that and otner churches. There
were great preparations, and so filed the
minister's mind that he entirely over
looked the fact that he had an appoint
ment to marry another pair at exactly the
same hour. When 7:l5 arrived the large
church was as full Of people as it could
be, and the pavement on each side Of the
projecting awning was crowded with the
non-invited, ewGiting forSthat boon which
the highest to the lowest enjoys peep
ct the bride. There were at least fifty
or sixty carriages in front of the church.
Among the guests in the church were
bankers, Judges, lawyers, numer-
Gus Clergymen and a fine representation
generally of the city's best social and ma
telisl prosperity. The organ was pealing
and the minister was in place. Just at
this juncture bride and bridegroom-elect
No. 2, who had been at the minister's
MUSE duu u1u DCCu IOiu W ~ " IlS
church, drove up IN g carriage to the side
door and entered. Around the side door
everything was as quiet as if nothing was
gong on. Through the door leading
from the chapel they saw theiilluminated,
crowded church, and just then the other
bride in white, with Jewels, and attended
by bevy of radiant bridemaids, all in
golden colored gowns aud preceded by q
retinue of elegant looking youths, came
up the aisle 1t YVES curious surprise
for the puzzled pair in the chapel. Ia
ab ut ten minutes the church was empty.
While the last Of the guests were going
and the sexton WAS putting out the lights
the minister married the second pair
briefly in the chapel. The bride was in
q plain travelling dress and the groom i'll
ordinary attire. When they came out
to enter the solitary carriage that stood
on the side street she was leaning proudly
on his arm, and they looked. at least IS
happy as the other pairs.

THE SULTAN'S HAREM.
How the Yelled Beauties of Turkey Are
Guarded.

In speaking of the Sultan's hsrem,
Baltimore American correspondent says:
The women are watched over by negro
eunuchs, governed by 8 chief and waited
upon by negroes of their own sex, ell Of
whom are natives of Egypt, trained from
infancy for this special service. These
negro women are tall and robust, with an
abundance of woolly hair, broad, fat
noses and black, shining skin, in marked
contrast to the men, who are peculiarly
shaped, their stout, short bodies and
disproportionately long legs giving them
grotesque appearance. This is the
more conspicuous from the fact that they
generally travel upon small Arab horses,
their feet nearly touching the ground. In
the harem the women spend their time in
comparative idleness, the bath aud toilet
filling the hours not allotted to eating and
sleeping. Some few of them smoke
cigarettes, and singing, with harp accom-
paniment, is not unusual. Their indo-
lent natures make them averse 20 eXsr-
else and they mostly recline upon their
divans. In fine weather they are per-
mitted to take drive, g certain number
at time. a half dozen carriages stop st
the harem in the early afternoon, and are
filed with occupants, four being the COM
plement of each carriage. They wear
very thin lace wells, which permit anyone
having good sight to distinguish their
features even at a considerable distance.
But one must be very careful in approach
ing too near these yelled beauties, else he
may receive stroke from the lash of the
driver. One wonders often why the wo-
men wear such thin lace over their faces,
while the free women of Constantinople
are mufiled in thick cotton wells, with
only small hole for one eye. The barem
carriages are mounted upon heavy
springs, painted in vivid vermillion, and
highly vanished. They have golden orna-
ments and are drawn by two horses. The
driver is a eunuch, as are also the
mounted guards, one at each door, When
the women visit the great bazaar, kind
of market where all kinds of wares are
sold, the carriages drive up in line before
the entrance, the guards dismount, and
turning their horses over to the care of
the drivers, accompany the women
thg ough the bazaar.

ACTRESSES IN SOCIETY.
Does MIR LoriIIard Mean TO Exclude Them
From Fashionable Tuxedo.
New York World

New York World.
Pierre Lorillard, as the proprietor of
Tuxedo Park, is deeply concerned in the
news of the American engagements of Mrs
James Brown Potter. He is said to have
laid down the law that no actresses shall
be received at Tuxedo. 1t will be remem-
bered that Miss Fortescue was taken
suddenly i'll after having been invited to
visit the park by q Tuxedo member, and
that there was some gossip in regard to
Mr.. Lorillard's observations upon this ILL
ness. Bat Mrs. James Brown Potter is
reported to have built or purchased cot
tage inside the sacred boundaries of Tux
edo Park, and there is question whether
Mr.. Lorillard has the right, if he have the
inclination, to forbid fer entrance. He
may claim that she is not an actress, but
this point mus: be left to the dramatic
critics.
There can be no doubt as to Pierre
Lorillsrd's position in opposition to the
reception of actresses at Tuxedo. A
wealthy young gentleman who was one
Of the original members of the club, but
being absent from the country he did not
qualify. On his return he was proposed
for membership by f. Gray Griswold.
The day before the election Mr.. Girls
void received the following telegram, the
original or which has sheen quietly hand
ed about at the clubs:

ed Wire answer. z. LORILLARD.
The answer was the Immediate with
draWal of the candidate on the ground
that no gentleman could accept member
ship under such conditions nor give any
